Canadian trade negotiators left the U.S. last week after failing to clinch a trade deal that would stop President Donald Trump's new tariffs from taking effect.

The counter-tariffs take effect from Sep 8 and will impose duties ranging from 15 per cent to 50 per cent across 700 US products.

The Canadian government will lay out a slate of retaliatory trade moves in response to President Donald Trump’s latest wave of tariffs.

Carney said the equivalent dollar-for-dollar counter-tariffs will focus on sectors such as dairy, steel, household appliances, farming equipment, electronics, and pulp and paper
